HIS PROMISES 2

-

Psalms 91:3

For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease.


2 Corinthians 1:20

For all of God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen” (which means “Yes”) ascends to God for his glory.


The promises of God which were prophesied by the prophets of old come alive in Christ Jesus. 


The coming of Christ was a full package!


Look at the two in the opening verses:


(1) I will rescue you from every trap: 


to be rescued implies that there is surely a trap, who sets this trap? - The enemy.


Understand that the enemy can be anyone at anytime. Selah


For Jesus at a point referred to Peter as Satan - at one instance:


Mark 8:33

Jesus turned around and looked at his disciples, then reprimanded Peter. “Get away from me, Satan!” he said. “You are seeing things merely from a human point of view, not from God’s.”


Anyone could be an instrument in the hand of the enemy because the tactics of the enemy is to bring suggestions:


1 Peter 5:8

Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.


So be careful, be alert in the spirit, for that person you call friend or even relation could be an influence at an instance of time ("shine your eye").


This is why I emphasize all the time of your one-on-one relationship with the Heavenly Father. If you know the tons of lies that has been sold to the people on the earth all in the name of religion or sects. Lord have mercy!


(2.) Protect you from deadly diseases


We of course can attest of the deadly diseases that come from here and there, the Lord has already promised to protect us and heal us of them.


Christ paid the price for our healing:


Isaiah 53:5

But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. 

He was beaten so we could be whole. 

He was whipped so we could be healed.


1 Peter 2:24b

By his wounds you are healed.


So dear believer you have the right to healing, fully paid for by your saviour.


. . . It is thus gullibility to pay someone money for spiritual healing . .  . Selah (Don't be a spiritual fool!).


The promises are so much in scriptures and Christ fulfilled them all. Beloved of the Lord instead of chasing breakthrough, healings, miracles here and there, why not spend time with the one who has already done all these for you. (Wise up believer).


 Matthew 11:28-30

Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”


Come to Christ today, let all the Heavenly Father's promises be yes and amen for you.


The great thing about it, is that it covers you for this life and the life after.


Luke 18:30

will be repaid many times over in this life, and will have eternal life in the world to come.”


Glory to God in the highest.


He calls us blessed.


Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
